Anyone take Milk Thistle? It is supposed to help the liver, especially if it has been damaged, say by years of moderate drinking. Asking for a friend.

Hey new developers: A fully funded retirement = Freedom I know it doesn't seem important now, but if you focus on this early in your career, you'll have a lot of flexibility later in your career.

I'm a big fan of "The Great Shark Hunt: Strange Tales from a Strange Time" which is a collection of articles from the first part of his career. I haven't read The Proud Highway but it sounds good.

These are problems but they ignore the bigger threats. Once ISPs get into selling your history and other reports and net neutrality is killed, we are all toast.

I don't personally know the state of the field in 1959 nor the accuracy of the wikipedia page, but the phrase 'Machine Learning' as it is currently being used, is closer to statistics than is is to learning.

English Wikipedia still calls it the "Tiananmen Square protests of 1989" instead of the "Tiananmen Square Massacre" which is what pretty much everyone outside China calls it. Maybe someday we'll stop China from cens

I can agree to a point here. Black markets will pop up anytime something is banned, and this was just a novel way for that to happen. The activities that come along with black markets aren't necessarily the fault of the thing being sol

The minimum sentence for the Continuing Criminal Enterprise Statute is 20 years, but pretty much everyone gets life, once all the other charges are added on. Saying he only had 1% of the US market is a ridiculous way to look at it. I'm

I don't really think of it as learning. I think of it as statistics on crack.

I think it's a nice idea. No doubt people need help with marketing here. I'm a little fuzzy on the mechanics. If you focus on a couple quality offerings every week, won't those particular newsletters get inundated with reques

Yes, always be polite. I find if you give some reasonable alternatives, they often take one of them. Sometimes you need to let them talk a little more to find out really what they are trying to accomplish and what the priorities are. I have

Here is my strategy: Say "No" without a reason, but give at some reasonable alternatives. I will not lie. "No, I can't do that for you at 5pm on a Friday. I can have it for you by noon on Monday, you can ask X to do the

Yes. This seems to be a classic two-sided market problem. Developers won't flock to it unless there is a critical mass of users. Users won't flock to it until there are widely used and understood tools that are better than they ha

Yes, a throw-back to the days of Flash in some ways. "Can you update these files?" "Sure, can you give me the source code?" "I gave you the source code." "No you didn't. I can't edit these."

That makes for a good headline but it's not actually true. AI beat humans in two-player, unlimited stakes, no-limit hold-em.

From a meeting last year: "We want to come up with creative ways to present this information, but we don't want to spend any time on things we won't end up using." For me, that says it all about the bias against creativi
